Lynne Dear, thinking of the halcyon summer days of our youth spent on Midland Ave. with Miss Martha Jane coming home from work and getting in our STUFF! I would call you Martha Jane and I was Ernestine on the beam -who precedes your mother in Heaven. I look back on those days with a wistful sigh. Please know that my heart is with you during this time of loss. I respected your mother; she always kept God before us. She did a good job Honey. Joe and I send our deepest sympathies to you and Billy and the family. Love you like a sister, Lynne
